Managing Files

Post by jjsh »

Hi,

I'm looking for any tips on how to easily identify the files being used by a particular Latex document so I can clean up my ever growing folders. I inherited a number of beamer lectures that I've since edited and updated...but now I'm left with dozens of unused and unorganized files (as well as dozens of files that are still being used). I typically like to keep graphics in a separate folder but wondering if there is an easy way to tell which ones are being used by my current beamer doc without going slide by slide through the document. Hoping there is an easy way get this all cleaned up...
